What’s up, dudes? Here’s  something a little different! I’ve got Little #1 here (with Littles #2-3 doing some sound effects) to give a quick outline of a short Christmas story we wrote back when she was a 4yro. She barely remembers writing it even though most of it was her idea. I just tightened up the story a bit and threw in a few ‘80s bits. Anyway, hope you enjoy this quick minisode!

What's up, dudes? While I'm preparing for the Raddies--there are a lot of limos to rent, flights to book, seating to arrange, etc.--I decided to release a couple of minisodes!

With the help of a few of my Christmas podcast friends and colleagues, I compiled THE DEFINITIVE '80s recast of the the beloved holiday classic "Elf", starring Will Farrell.
